I totally understand what this Man is saying.i live in Nairobi Kenya in Africa and every month the Kenyan government passes new laws just to favour big business and the very rich yet millions of ordinary Kenyans don't have clean water to drink.its like the government only exist to arrest and punish poor people.

Market declines, soaring inflation, a significant increase in interest rates by the Fed, and rising Treasury yields all point to additional losses for portfolios this quarter. How can I profit from the present market turbulence? I'm still debating whether to sell my $125k ETF/Growth Stock portfolio.

Thank you professor Wolff. Best talk ever, on this subject.

The problem though is that ... "if voting ever worked they [the elite] would never have allowed it" - Somebody somewhere said that.

Thank you Dr. Wolff !! You are teaching me things I have never thought about in 47 years on this planet. How about running??

They don't call 'em "Robber Barons" for nothing.

After watching this for over an hour, I began to wonder if Wolff had gotten some inspiration from Carlin, then he goes on to say George is one of his favorites of all time. Liking this guy's work more and more!

This class needs to be taught to every child ages five through age 20 every week of their life. They need to listen to this gentleman and learn maybe this country could be turned around somebody figure that out and let’s get it done.

[@samuelo.4298]

Prof Wolf gives very enlightened analysis of matters affecting all people who care to listen and take action

Americans, I hope you know how blessed you are for having people like Richard Wolff, Chris Hedges, Catherine Fitts and others fighting for you people. I wish we had at least one like Richard Wolff in my own country. In my country we have a bunch of bloggers that copy everything that people like Richard Wolff does, later saying that this is their work. Amazing, unbelievable.

Repealing the enclosure laws and giving the land back to the people, would be a very good start to reform.

Magnificent breakdown of the US system. Easily understood surgically disected. Done with warm hearted panache. Bravo. God bless you.❤

[@RobertHay1983]

We all need to listen to this and get organised and retake back the means of production and profits they create for the benifit of all rather than the few

[@tiffsaver]

This is perhaps the finest, most comprehensive speech Richard Wolff has ever given. I'm sending this to all my friends... it's important.

Excellent chronological presentation, one of the best I've seen.
